Spider Stories
Before I begin, I would like to state that I have an extreme fear of spiders. I'm more afaid of spiders than I am of heights. I'm not a bug/insect fan at all. I hate them all. May they all suffer and die. Of course with the exception of butterflies and dragonflies cuz they're nice and fun. Spider Story #1 This spider story took place sometime when I was litte. I really have no idea how old I was, but I'm pretty sure it was around mid-gradeschool. It was summer time, meaning it was extremely hot outside and definitely a time to wear shorts. The air conditioning was on of course, and the basement is always the coolest place in the house. I was in the basement, playing in the toyroom. I can't recall exactly what I was doing, but I know I was sitting on the floor. While in the midst of doing whatever, I felt something on the back of my leg. My first reaction was to quickly brush it away. When I did so, a spider appeared. Then it was just one quick and sudden movement that got me on my feet and about three feet from the place I had been sitting. My heart was racing, and I swear I could have had a heart attack. Shaking, I looked at the extremely large spider and realized that I had nothing to kill it with since I didn't wear shoes in the house. I quickly scanned the room and found a shoe and flung it fast and hard at the spider. I recall hitting it about ten to fifteen times, even though it was dead after I hit it the first or second time. Needless to say, I didn't sit on the basement floor for a long time after that. Spider Story #2 This spider story took place around junior high school. Again, I can't recall when exactly it was. Before I take a shower, I always quickly glance around the room for spiders. Well, there was this one that was on the ceiling and hadn't moved for quite a while. I of course figured it was dead. I went ahead and took my shower thinking nothing of the spider. Bad move on my part. While in the middle of my shower, I glanced up and saw that stupid, evil spider crawling on the ceiling right above me. I screamed while it continued to crawl towards the wall with the shower head on it. I quickly turned off the water and jumped out of the shower. My mom of course heard me scream, so she was knocking on the door asking what was wrong. I put some towels around myself and opened the door. I told her my story, and she just said that it wasn't like it was going to get in the shower with me. Oh, yeah sure ... The spider, had crawled from the ceiling and onto the shower wall. It did go in the shower. My mom had to kill it, and then I was able to finish my shower. I now check everywhere thoroughly for spiders before I even consider taking a shower. Spider Story #3 This spider took place sometime in May of 2002. I was up on the computer until like 12:30 am, even though I had to get up early for school. I finally decided it was time to go to bed. Well when I got to my room, I realized that I was sightly cold. I only had a sheet on my bed and my two blankets were on the floor. I picked them up and started to spread them out across my bed. I'm not even sure how I managed to miss this spider, but I did. I was straightening out a corner and had to have had my hand right next to the spider. Great, just great. It really wasn't that big, but it was on my DBZ afghan and I really didn't want to kill it right there. It was late and it was on my bed, so I got one of my sandals. I went to hit it, but right as I was bring the sandal down, the spider moved. Because of my fear of spiders, I had taken my hand away from the sandal and was making sure the spider wasn't near me. Now, I had a spider somewhere in my bed. I wasn't going to look for it. I had to sleep on the couch in the living room. Of course my sister gets up early for work, so I was up at five something. Then she had to blow-dry her hair in the living room so she wouldn't wake anyone up. I was on the couch so that kind of affected me. When she was leaving, she told me to go sleep in her bed. I did and then my mom couldn't find me to wake me up. *lol* I refused to touch my blankets and used the afghan that was in the living room. I still haven't taken my blankets off my floor. I don't really plan on doing it anytime soon either. #4 - June 22, 2002 Everything was going just great. It was about 12:40 AM and I was watching Mini-Goddess. I was kinda hungry so I decided to go downstairs to see if there was anything to eat. While in the basement I decided I wanted to see if any of my friends were online, so I got on the computer. No friends. As I was turning my chair to get up, I noticed this huge spider on the floor next to the scanner. I was home alone, in the basement, with no shoes or vacuum near by. I tried to think of what I could use to kill it with since I didn't want to get close to it at all. As I sat thinking, the spider started to move slowly towards this low-set table. I hurried up and got something small and heavy to drop on it but it had moved too far and was inbetween some items. Then I was going to take a small box of Resume Envelopes and slam them into it, but it was already partly under the table. I lightly hit the box on the floor and the damn spider was as fast as I thought it would have been. So, I continued to sit on the computer chair with my feet up and decided to go ahead and type up my new story. And here I am, with goosebumps on my arms, the chills, and scared to ever come back down to the computer again. The worst part is that I have shirts that I needed to bring upstairs, but now I'm paranoid about huge-ass spiders being in my clothes. Hopefully my mom will check my clothes and bring them up for me. Probably not, but I can always hope. Spider Story #5 This happened sometime in the summer of 2002. I was in shorts with no shoes or socks on cuz it was summer. I was going to go on the computer so I needed to go downstairs. Well, I opened the door and turned on the light for the little landing that is before the basement steps. As I was putting my foot down on the landing, I suddenly noticed a spider. I almost stepped on it with bare feet. It probably wasn't even an inch away from my foot. It scurried away and I went and got a shoe and killed it. That's the end of that spider... Spider Story #6 This happened sometime in the summer of 2002 and only a few days after spider story #5. I was in shorts with no shoes or socks on cuz it was summer. I was going to go on the computer so I needed to go downstairs. You think I would have learned my lesson with the previous spider incident but I didn't. I made it past the landing alright. I was about half way down the stairs to the basement when it happened. As I put my right foot down on the next step, I felt something underneath it. At that precise moment, I realized what it was without even seeing it. Because I walk down the steps rather quickly, I had to continue walking down and couldn't just stop and pick my foot up. Now, I didn't completely step on the spider. No... It was under the arch of my foot so it didn't die. Since I did somewhat step on it, it stuck to the bottom of my foot and was dropped onto the next step. I was freaking out and the damn thing was still alive. It was injured so I finally got up the courage to walk past it and back up stairs to go get a shoe. Needless to say the spider was killed. For a while after that, I refused to walk down to the basement without shoes on. I'd be on my way and then realize what I was doing and go back to my room to get my sandals. That didn't last long and I still walk downstairs with bare feet. I shall never learn. However, I do pay close attention to the steps before I put my feet on them. #7 - Nov. 17, 2002 First off I would like to say this has got to be the stupidest spider story ever. It's about 12:30am and I'm sitting at the computer typing. Actually working on my site. Well I see this small spider crawling across the HTML book on the desk and crawling towards the keyboard and me. So I grab a tissue to kill it instead of just squishing it in my book, and when I look back at the desk, the spider is at the keyboard. Well it was trying to crawl onto the F12 key, but for some reason it was taking a while for it to actually get on top of the key. So I wasn't going to attempt to squish it there. This is where the story gets really stupid. The spider quickly crawls over the F12 key and falls into the small little crack in the keyboard right below the F11 & F12 keys. Alright, so I'm watching this spider fall into the crack, and I expect it to continue crawling across the keyboard. Wrong! It was stuck in the space below the F11 & F12 key. I still can't believe it got stuck in the keyboard. So I got the vacuum and cleaned out the keyboard. So that's my stupid spider story. « reverse |
